    perf tool: Add cgroup support · 023695d9
    Stephane Eranian 提交于
    This patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on container groups
    (cgroups) for both perf stat and perf record. It is possible to monitor
    multiple cgroup in parallel. There is one cgroup per event. The cgroups to
    monitor are passed via a new -G option followed by a comma separated list of
    cgroup names.
    
    The cgroup filesystem has to be mounted. Given a cgroup name, the perf tool
    finds the corresponding directory in the cgroup filesystem and opens it. It
    then passes that file descriptor to the kernel.
    
    Example:
    
    $ perf stat -B -a -e cycles:u,cycles:u,cycles:u -G test1,,test2 -- sleep 1
     Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
    
          2,368,667,414  cycles                   test1
          2,369,661,459  cycles
          <not counted>  cycles                   test2
